Articles about Anura Ranasinghe
Profile:
A schoolboy prodigy Anura Ranasinghe made his international debut
in the 1975 World Cup against the might of the West Indies whilst
still only 18 years of age. Ranasinghe played in all three
matches for the Sri Lankans without producing any performance of
note. His test debut came on Sri Lanka's inaugural Test tour of
Pakistan in the second Test at Faisalabad. Ranasinghe struggled
with the bat scoring 6 and 5 batting at number seven. Despite
taking the new ball he was used sparingly although he did take
1/23 in the first innings. In the one off Test against England
Ranasinghe appeared to be out of his depth bowling just seven
overs and scoring a duck. However, at his best when his back was
against the wall he responded with a combative display scoring 77
in the second innings. Still only 25, Ranasinghe had a number of
years left to establish his position as a quality Test allrounder
but he elected to join the tour of South Africa thus prematurely
ending his international career and ensuring his early potential
went unfulfilled.
